Andrew Yang Questions The Lack Of Diversity On The Democratic Debate Stage | TIME

MODERATOR:
“Mr. Yang, ... The Democratic Party relies on black, Hispanic and Asian voters. But you are the only candidate of color on the stage tonight, and the entire field remains overwhelmingly white. What message do you think this sends to voters of color?”

[gnome]

I used to think Andrew Yang and his Freedom Dividend was a gimmick. Then I watched the Joe Rogan interview... Mind = Blown! There has never been a more genuine and knowledgeable candidate than him

[oldairpatino]

Of course Times would just make it look like he’s questioning it and not answering a question by the moderator :/

Was this title intentionally misleading? "Andrew Yang questions the lack of diversity on the Democratic Debate stage."

He didn't question the lack of diversity, he was asked by the mods.

[MugenLifeStyle]

Its a bummer that his answer is being misrepresented. If you listen to the question that was asked before this response it makes a lot more sense

[xandercorp]

TIME needs to raise its standards, this level of misleading spin demeans you.

[DadIsntMad]

Whether you like it or not this guy is a truth teller.

This comment section is crazy. He was asked a question about race and was just answering it. He didn’t randomly “play the race card” out of nowhere. Blame the moderator that asked the question not Yang.
Yang is trying to give every American citizen $1000/month so we can decide what the money should be used for and not the government. And it’s for every citizen so it’s not some biased distribution where this group gets some and that group doesn’t based on some arbitrary rules the gov comes up with.

For me, the best answer of the night from any candidate. The second was his answer to impeachment. The third was his answer to climate change and nuclear energy. The fourth...

[vatsanaannie]

Time ...if your gonna post a clip of Andrew yang answering question or questions PLEASE make sure you put out the entire clips .. STOP trying to smear him...

Yang2020.com remember to donate y'all. Even a dollar helps

[davidyaung]

150+ policies on his website yang2020.com

[learnbstill]

WOW, That's just dirty of them. They really should have covered the whole statement.

[pensivenincompoop]

Yang did not question it on stage. He was explaining why there was a lack of diversity. TIME, why you be lyin'?

[calogero]

He must be forgetting that Elizabeth Warren is Native American

[damiarmyworld]

The first ever genuine Leader & Human that can process, analyse, calculate & provide solutions using data that benefits Humanity. Yang is the Human Quantum-Computer!

[ZBABOUINOS]

What? 😠
Pocahontas doesn't count? 😠

[benlee]

If I had an extra 1000, I wouldn’t donate any of it to kamala or Corey. It’s all about policy and plans not no freedom dividends. I know this dude is tackling problems the others don’t talk about and I appreciate that.

[ejwhitman]

He didn't question it. He was asked. Let's do better with headlines.

[tainoman]

White tears are kinda making this more fun than it should be
